Very soon, the first works on building and reconstruction began, and it is estimated that the total value of this investment is even 15 million EUR.

Amasis company is a part of "A group", while Sloboda hotel will be the first among domestic hotel chain - A hotel. The chain will be made of 4 well known Serbian hotels, in its first phase: "Izvor" in Arandjelovac, "Master" in Novi Sad, "Tornik" in Zlatibor and "Sloboda" in Sabac.

Once the works are finished, Sabac based hotel will have 37 smaller and 28 bigger doble rooms and 21 suits, which means a total of 151 accomodation beds (that is 172 beds, if the suits are counted as double rooms).
